widget Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 ^^^^^^ I'd go with that and it would also keep the costs down. Just as a second thought what would that look like with a silver/metal oval around it? (I have no idea how to do this sorry) Like this?

lrfarmer Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 i like this one, dosen't look or sound corny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outdoor_ian Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Like this? Thats what I ment. But with the faded wording, however thinking about I doubt you will get faded writing once its embroiderd or has been washed a few times.

landroversforever Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 LrFarmer I like that one too. Simply, not geeky, or cheesy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A decent quality shirt embroidered will last years and is good value for money IMO. Now bigger and on blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishbosh Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I liked the "when swearing fails" one by Errol Oh perhaps, mud, tech and, er, summut else to finish it off..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
errol209 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Oh perhaps, mud, tech and, er, summut else to finish it off..... That would be gears then, as in M"ud, Tech and Gears", which I quite like too. My general vote is for a strapline. I once saw a group of festival roadies wearing company uniform with the co. name on (OK, but not thrilling) and underneath in small letters it said "Isolate wearer before removing this cover" (which made me laugh). Not that I'm suggesting that one at all, it's just that whilst we might all know what LR4x4.com is all about*, the general populace will file us under "gas-guzzling baby-killing 4x4 scum" unless we do just a little to lighten the mood. * anyone starting a breakaway thread on this subject is to stay behind to do lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well not that bad but someone who thinks everything is a joke and lets go and rip up a green lane! Personally I prefer the simple oval logo above in a non LR colour as I don't think I am a LR nerd. The ones above look good to me. Marc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike4444244 Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 +1 I have pet hatred of strap line things, IMHO they are unnecessary eg when you see a police car with 'serving your community' on, why don't they just replace all of them with 'doing my job'! sorry rant over, I think (again IMHO) that the blue logo/forum logo is ideal, and doesn't make the wearer look like an anorak or part of a political party!

Agree - but aren't strap lines unnecessary only when we know what the organisation is/does? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderzander Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Agree - but aren't strap lines unnecessary only when we know what the organisation is/does? I guess that depends on how big the role of advertising is with the t-shirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunc Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I agree with the anti-slogan folks on the whole. I know i've posted it about four times but the is all i think it needs, although maybe surrounded by a similarly coloured oval line. It's only my opinion, but the variations on "Tech. Talk. Tossrs." and "Independant minds, shared Corporate Vision Statement" and the like are just utter cobblers. Clearly we have too many social workers and marketing specialists... Fine, i wear slogan t-shirts sometimes, but they aren't what we're aiming for here are they? Simple logo as above and i'll have a hoody and a hat, maybe a rugby for me and the wife too depending on the finances. Stick a load of other 'clever' guff on it and i wont bother if i'm honest. I reserve the right to modify my decision if something that interests/amuses me sufficiently comes along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godlykepower Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Right, can someone make a decision now? This could go on till the end of time at this rate. We, as usual, are going round in circles with people wanting just a logo, and people wanting a witty strap line below etc. I am probably not alone in this, but i'm quickly losing interest in the whole project, what with all the faffing. Get on with it. Or, before anyone pipes up with a "You do it then, if you think you can do better" type comment; I will happily make a decision, and if you dont like it, then you can lump it.

vexedfoxy Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Love the logo's in post 122, maybe without the writing underneath? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR90 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 OK, seems if we are to please everyone we must go with the forum logo in an oval and place the words 'this is not a strapline' underneath. All in a tasteful blue color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godlykepower Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 and place the words 'this is not a strapline' underneath But with multiple exclamation marks at the end.....just so everyone realises its witty. "This is not a strapline!!!!" Hilarious. He he....."This strapline is rated to 4 tons" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
